1996 Nissan Quest Owner's Manual - Page 84

complies with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. You should choose a child restraint that fits your vehicle and always follow the manufacturer's instructions for installation and use. Children Children who are too large for child restraints should be seated and restrained by the seat belts which are provided. NISSAN recommends that children sit in a rear seat if possible. According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in a rear seat than in a front seat. If the child's seating position has a shoulder belt that fits close to the face or neck, the use of a booster seat (commercially available) may help overcome this. The booster seat should raise the child so the shoulder belt is properly positioned across the top, middle portion of the shoulder and the lap belt is low on the hips. The booster seat should fit the vehicle seat and have a label certifying that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Once the child has grown enough so the shoulder belt is no longer on or near the face and neck, use the shoulder belt without the booster seat. WARNING Never let a child stand or kneel on any seat and do not allow a child in the cargo areas while the vehicle is moving. The child could be seriously injured or killed in an accident. Pregnant women NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use seat belts. Contact your doctor for specific recommendations. The lap belt should be worn snug and positioned as low as possible around the hips, not the waist. APD0500 3-POINT TYPE WITH RETRACTOR WARNING ● Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should wear a seat belt at all times. ● Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be against your body. In an accident you could be thrown into it and receive neck or other serious injuries. You could also slide under the Injured persons NISSAN recommends injured persons use seat belts, depending on the injury. Check with your doctor for specific recommendations. 2-51
